Hello all, Blocking porn off my phone has been my worst problem. K9 doesn't work for my Galaxy unfortunately. My phone is my worst enemy. It's easy to say "it takes a change of heart" but that's definitely not enough. I had an app that blocked things but then I started browsing Craigslist for a random hookup which is probably even worse-then the thumbnail pics set me off. Please help or redirect me to a link/post that can help! Thanks
I had the same problem. My prevention method had to change because there is really no good cell phone porn blocker. I keep my phone out of my room. You might consider never being alone with your cell phone.
Well i use an iPhone and it allows me to set up a basic adult content filter which blocks anything it deems explicit. On top of that I can manually enter website urls I want it to restrict. All of this can be overridden with a pass code so it's best to enter something you won't remember or just let someone else enter it. Idk if android phones can do anything like this but it's worth a shot
Worst case, get rid of the phone and use a dumb phone for calling and texting. The thought had crossed my mind but I am way past the P at this point. I know in my particular case, if there was a filter or not, I'd find a way around it if I really wanted to. As mentioned iPhone stuff has these options built in. I just saw a tweet from xxxchurch that said filtering for android phones, maybe look it up on their website.
There's a K9 browser on the play store you can use, but its not as good as Google Chrome (And sadly, there's no way to block porn on Chrome).
I used to have the exact same problem. I just had a trusted friend put a password on my internet connection on my phone that only he would know. Fixed that problem immediately.
